Widepoint wins $3B DHS mobility recompete

Widepoint Corp. has won a potential 10-year, $3 billion contract to continue its role as the lead managed services provider for the Homeland Security Department’s mobile device inventory.

DHS awarded this third iteration of the Cellular Wireless Managed Services contract on Wednesday and received three proposals in total, according to Sam.gov records. The new contract’s ordering period took effect Wednesday and covers one initial base year, followed by up to nine individual option years.

“CWMS 3.0 creates a durable and expandable pathway for WidePoint to deliver mission-critical communications-related capabilities at scale across the federal government,” WidePoint CEO Jin Kang said in a release Thursday.

This was a major recompete hurdle for WidePoint to clear as this contract represented 77% of the company's revenue mix for 2025, according to the company's annual report. Widepoint posted $105.5 million in overall revenue for 2025 and is a publicly-traded company listed on the NYSE American exchange.

Under the CWMS contract, Widepoint is tasked to act as DHS’ primary interface with commercial wireless carriers for ordering devices and associated services. Bidders for the recompete were required to secure commitment letters from the major carriers AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and the FirstNet public safety network.

Solicitation documents released in November outline DHS’ need for support of approximately 150,000 wireless connections ranging from service desk support to program management, expense management and transition support.

Widepoint also maintains a web-based portal, which it calls the ITMS Command Center, for DHS to use in managing the devices in its portfolio.

The company has captured all three iterations of the contract, first with the original win in 2013 and then the CWMS 2.0 recompete in 2020.

DHS has obligated $494.4 million in task order volume against CWMS 2.0, according to GovTribe data.
